 Since there seem to have issues with Android and stuff about long writes, I was wondering if there was a possibility to customize the allowed length in the device name characteristic (0x2A00) since it seems to be automatically declared by the SoftDevice</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 29 Aug 2016 12:43:13 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/16038/customize-allowed-device-name-length" /><item><title>RE: Customize allowed device name length</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/61165?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 29 Aug 2016 12:43:13 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:829c0136-5efd-4363-85a9-ec5547df18bb</guid><dc:creator>S&amp;#233;bastien Le Ray</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;What I&amp;#39;d try to achieve is to change the md.len attribute but cannot find a way to do it properly (found no way to get a handle on the char).
My current workaround is to simply advertise (&amp;amp; store in flash) the first 10 characters but this still mess up with buggy Android not setting offsets in the write and the device name characteristic has full length value&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Customize allowed device name length</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/61164?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 29 Aug 2016 12:37:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:6a194b07-b7bb-447c-93ff-b5650ac81461</guid><dc:creator>Petter Myhre</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;In SoftDevice S132 3.0.0 the length is not fixed anymore.
